Princess Barfly, Birmingham, El Paso and Ole' Yellow Shoes are some of the people and places Dave Palicheck comes across on his cross country bus trip from Miami to Seattle. After a three month party that started in St. Thomas, Dave found himself broke and on a bus for the next three thousand miles and was in for a ride. Dave is traveling with his girlfriend, Kelley Di Martini, he's been with her since they met earlier in the year at a local Seattle rock show. They have five and a half days to kill from Miami to get back home to Seattle and Dave does so by watching the scenery go by, observing and eavesdropping in on his fellow bus travelers and he writes it all down. As Seattle closes in for Dave and he is nearly home, he takes a look back at his trip and finds a little insight about himself... his biggest trip yet.
